That’s now been in operations in two distribution centers here, one in Utah and one in Arkansas ever since. Your range and long range and low cost. And a fixed-wing aircraft over something that can hover has something like an 800% advantage in range and cost. And volume, it’s big. Wyrobek: Yeah, yeah.

However, the direct use of natural gas in transportation is limited due to the inherent low energy density of natural gas and infrastructure changes that are required, which leads to reduced vehicle range and high storage cost. If successful, LBNL’s process will enable low-cost, energy-efficient fuel production from natural gas.
